Priscilla loves to see her celebrity granddaughter excel, but she is also down for her other matriarch duties.

After Riley's mom left her father, Danny Keough, she was married to the king of pop, Michael Jackson.

SOME FACTS ABOUT RILEY KEOUGH

Her mom, Lisa Marie Presley, is the only child of the Presleys. Riley grew up in the limelight and probably already knew the path she would tread.

As a teenager, Keough ventured into modeling and acting. With time, she took roles in movies such as "The Runaways" and "Yellow and The Good Doctor," which earned her approval in Hollywood.

She also landed a role in 2015's blockbuster movie, "Mad Max." Presently, Riley is the only Presley grandchild in the limelight. Her younger brother Benjamin is interested in music but prefers to stay off the spotlights.

Although her iconic grandfather left behind a handsome inheritance, it seems the "The Lodge" actress is determined to carve her niche and "cash."

After Riley's mom left her father, Danny Keough, she was married to the king of pop, Michael Jackson. In an interview with Vanity Fair, the entertainer fondly recalled times she spent in Jackson's famous home, "Neverland."

Although Elvis Presley is world-renowned and will be remembered in music for decades to come, it remains a sad fact that Riley and her siblings never got to meet him in person.
